My Best Christmas Present

There are numerous bird species that use cavities in the mighty Saguaro cactii, I always look at the holes, just in case I see anything peeping out. There are hundreds of Saguaros, each has dozens of holes in them so it stands to reason that over the years I have looked as a lot of holes in cactii! At last my perseverance has been rewarded. I was sitting up by the pool on Christmas Eve and I glanced up at the cactus which is used by the Purple Martins in the summer.................look who was looking back at me!

We have a small piece of land nestled up against the mountains and this blog is a pictorial record of what occurs there. My only rule, if it doesn't take place on our land - it doesn't get on the blog.
